Actress Anna Kendrick tweeted Monday about "masturbating" at a movie theater during a Ryan Gosling film (we can only assume the dispatch was a joke), and the tweet has created a social media frenzy as people find the indiscreet message too enticing to leave alone.

Kendrick, who is known from her roles in films ranging from the "Twilight" series to "Scott Pilgrim vs. the World," tweeted her apparent adoration for Ryan Gosling on Monday in what can only be described as an unorthodox fashion:

And the tweet quickly spread across Twitter, as it had been retweeted nearly 25,000 times as of Tuesday evening, by which time it had also been favorited more than 21,000 times.

The tweet even made it to the top of the Yahoo! News "TRENDING NOW" list, where it was sure to generate even more buzz for the 27-year-old actress, who has parts in a number of upcoming movies, including "Drinking Buddies" and "Rapturepalooza," according to IMDB.

"@AnnaKendrick47 uhm you didn't warn me before I followed you that your tweets are NC-17"

And Hollywood.com reporter Kelsea Stahler responded to the controversy with the following remarks, which are aimed at debunking the idea that such an admission should be seen as a surprise in light of Gosling's tremendous popularity:

"Can we stop pretending it’s shocking that a woman might be inspired by a handsome movie star, especially if that handsome movie star is someone as universally lusted after as Gosling?," Stahler wrote.
